Got this contact request on my Skype:
benjamindabrahem029 (benjamindabraheme)
Hello XXX, I am sorry to contact you unannounced through this medium. I am Mr. Benjamin T. Dabrah, a banker here in Ghana . I write you this proposal in good faith hoping that I will rely on you . In 2006, one Mr.Daniel XXX who has same surname as yours and who has you....
Ok, that's all I could read. I don't want to add "him" as a contact and chat with him. Ghana... Africa... Why does it give such a negative vibe once you read it in your email etc? And I wonder why they're so honest about it seeing how these countries have gotten such a bad reputation from these so-called "Nigerian scams". A person who transfers money to Nigeria these days, in order to receive 1000 times more in return, would have to be many times more stupid than the ones who did it before the scam got well-known to the public.
It doesn't matter where he's from. If he contacted you as well, it means that he contacted many people since you managed to find this page. Did he tell you that someone with the same last name as you contacted them in 2006? Maybe he left some money for you down in Ghana. You just have to pay the banker, Mr. Dabrah first. Or maybe it's impossible to get the money out of Ghana without bribing some police officers or perhaps some gerilla troops. Or some lawyers, who knows.
The question I always ask myself is: If they have all this money waiting for me, why can't they just use this money to pay off the people they need to pay off? Maybe if they were transferring some gold to you it would make more sense. But seriously, what kind of banker is going to contact you through Skype to discuss such a matter.
